Expectations absolutely exceeded
To be honest, I don't understand the bad reviews at all. For me (as a vanilla lover) one of the most beautiful and unique vanilla fragrances.
Sure - you can't expect miracles at this price. But you still get an enchanting, cool, spicy, yet gourmand vanilla. This is a fragrance I would like to bathe in every day.
I find this composition absolutely unique, it also reminds me of #ani, but really only very far away.
You can't expect a big progression, but you know what you're getting.
So I'm going to buy it again as a backup, that's how much I love it.
I don't like the bottle at all, it really devalues the fragrance in my opinion. The color should not have been pink (=girly), but rather beige-ochre (=adult/feminine).

Rose with a bite... Ouch
Immediately after spraying it on, a great authentic rose emerges. Like a freshly picked rose from the garden - "I love it, I want more of it" is my immediate thought.
The term "Intense Café" is a little misleading for me. Unfortunately, I can't smell the café at all, not even a little bit. Many people write that the café slowly becomes more and more pronounced over time, but unfortunately not in my nose. I only smell rose and...
Now comes the big BUT:
Unfortunately, as with many other Montale fragrances, after 5 minutes the scent becomes so synthetic that it overpowers everything. This synthetic is metallic, acrid and gets into my head so much that I get a headache.
I find it unbearable, even unwearable. Yet this fragrance has so much potential and starts so well.
As I said, I feel the same way about many Montale fragrances, and I'm not the only one. I would be very interested to know what triggers this "bite". Zara has a dupe for it (Rose Gourmand), which is unfortunately 1 to 1 the same.
Too bad, I would love to have this great rose as a wearable perfume for myself. Unfortunately, it's not meant to be.

Uniquely good
This fragrance is unique. Uniquely good!
It starts with a light ginger note, followed by something citrusy and green. A spiciness emerges in the background, but you don't notice it too much yet. Over time, it changes more and more and becomes even warmer and spicier. A great, very warm vanilla is added, which does not smell artificial.
I love all facets of this perfume. For me, it is a total work of art and one of the most beautiful fragrances in my collection!

Sweet but fresh vanilla
A great light vanilla, with a little freshness. Smells sweet, but not too creamy and heavy.
This fragrance complements my vanilla collection perfectly, as I haven't smelled anything like it before or have it in my repertoire.
Unfortunately, it sometimes reminds me of wet wipes, which is why the fragrance doesn't always work for me.
